There are all the reasons for the exit poll results to be correct.

There are many conditions for them to be proved wrong, too. However, the fulfilment of these conditions is extremely difficult, if not impossible, in today’s India.

The first reason why the exit polls could be right is the Election Commission itself has started feeling proud of working like a wing of the BJP.

The second reason is the big media, which decided long ago that it would work as a propaganda department for the BJP.

The third is the judiciary, which has done amazing acrobatics to remain favourable to the ruling party and to appear balanced.
